Ducati Hypermotard 1100 Review

Ducati Hypermotard 1100 overview

This award-winning bike caused a real ripple when it was first launched in 2007; its unique design is certainly eye-catching and if you are in the market for a bike which is a lot of fun then the Hypermotard 1100 is certainly one to consider.

The first thing to note is that the Hypermotard 1100 is not a bike to buy if you are looking for comfort and practicality; it is no secret that this is a bike which is extremely rough to ride. From the upright riding position to the poor level of weather protection offered, this supermoto bike has been designed for short bursts of speed on even shorter journeys. If you want a bike with torque, power and comfort packed into one, then the Hypermotard is a bike best avoided. However, if you want a bike with a punchy engine to take out on short, thrilling rides and a bike which draws all eyes due to its unusual look, then the Hypermotard is a winner.

There have been numerous niggles reported with the Hypermotard, mostly relating to the fact that the motor is exposed. This can lead to obvious signs of wear which gives the bike a less glamorous look. In addition to this, it is worth noting that parts for the Hypermotard are not always easy to come by so if you purchase one second-hand then make sure it has been well serviced on a regular basis and that there is nothing which immediately needs replacing.
